The ELECTRE family of decision aid methods are well-known approaches in the field of multiple criteria decision aiding (MCDA). Different ELECTRE methods can be used for choice problem, ranking problem and sorting problem respectively. These methods are characterized by outranking relations and exploitation procedures. Different definitions of the outranking relations result in the difference of...

Purpose Making techniques PROMETHEE, direction of research in this emerging field. Design/Methodology/Approach: literature related to MCDM techniques PROMETHEE, ELECTRE, VIKOR and TOPSIS. Literature has been segregated to understand various issues and work related to MCDM techniques PROMETHEE, ELECTRE, VIKOR and TOPSIS. A detailed review is used to sort out the literature and develop the resear...

When considering Electre s valued outranking relations, aggregation/disaggregation methodologies have difficulties in taking discordance (veto) into account. We present a partial inference procedure to compute the value of the vetorelated parameters that best restore a set of outranking statements (i.e., examples that an Electre model should restore) provided by a decision maker, given fixed va...

We introduce the principle of robust ordinal regression to group decision. We consider the main multiple criteria decision methods to which robust ordinal regression has been applied, i.e., UTA and GRIP methods, dealing with choice and ranking problems, UTADIS , dealing with sorting (ordinal classification) problems, and ELECTRE , being an outranking method applying robust ordinal regression to...

The ELECTRE I is one of the most extensively used methods to solve multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problems. In this paper, we propose a novel AHPbased ELECTRE I method of reliability design scheme decision for computer numerical control (CNC) machine. Based on the AHP method combined with ELECTRE I, the decision model is built to select the optimal design scheme. The AHP method is app...

The purpose of this paper is to extend the ELECTRE method based on intuitionistic fuzzy sets in decision analysis and experimental analysis on the proposed methods’ contradiction rate. We identify different kinds of concordance and discordance sets, e. g. concordance, midrange concordance, weak concordance, discordance, midrange discordance and weak discordance for each ordering at the proposed...

Application of Group Decision Support System (GDSS) can assist for delivering the decision of various opinions (preference) cancer detection based on the preferences of various expertise. In this paper we propose ELECTRE-Entropy for GDSS Modeling. We propose entropy weighting for each criteria under ELECTRE Method.ELECTRE is one method in MultiAttribute Decision Making (MADM). Modeling of Group...

An Arizona case study consisting of 6 alternative schemes is evaluated with respect to 15 noncommensurable, discrete criteria, using two types of (MCDM) techniques, namely the outranking types of ELECTRE I and II, and the distance-based type of compromise programming (CP). The result is a complete preference ordering of the nondominated alternatives in the cases of ELECTRE II and CP and a parti...

Ranking and selecting projects is a relatively common, yet often difficult task. It is complicated because there is usually more than one dimension for measuring the impact of each project and more than one decision maker. This paper considers a real application of project selection for ECNZ, Northern Generation, using an approach called ELECTRE. The ELECTRE method has several unique features n...

This note discusses the properties of the asymmetric part of an outranking relation a la ELECTRE. Such relations have been used in the pseudodisjunctive version of ELECTRE TRI-B. We show that they have properties that are somewhat di erent from the ones of outranking relations. Indeed, contrary to outranking relations, they allow to have at the same time veto and bonus e ects. We suggest that t...
